I arrived this morning in Lincoln, IL at RJD Hobbies for the 2011 Futaba Electric Challenge. Today is open practice and drivers are out early working on their setup and lines. We will run 3 rounds of qualifying tomorrow and then the mains. After the mains there will also be a Dash 4 Cash race and a 15 car team Short Course Truck Enduro which will be fun to watch. All the door prizes from the many generous sponsors will also be handed out tomorow night too.

Then on Sunday there is a new track layout in place and we will run 3 rounds of qualifying and mains again. Keep checking back here for updates on the race and new products I have found in the pits. And if you are at the race this weekend and have downloaded our free app from the App Store, find me and show me the app and I’ll hook you up with a free t-shirt.
